The Different Stages of Paget's Disease and How They Affect Your Health
In my recent research on Paget's Disease, I discovered that this bone disorder progresses through different stages, each with its unique impact on our health. The early stages, known as the "lytic phase," involve bone breakdown which can lead to pain, deformity, and even fractures. As the disease progresses to the "mixed phase," new bone formation occurs, but it's disorganized, leading to further complications. In the final "sclerotic phase," the bones become denser but weaker, increasing the risk of fractures and other health issues. It's crucial to understand these stages and seek treatment accordingly to maintain our overall well-being.
